At five feet, five and a hundred and ten The Marines said, “sorry, too small of a man.” Yet he became greatest of World War men, The Army’s David to Goliath stands. An orphan at the early age of sixteen, Enlisted at nineteen then off to war. As part of the 15th infantry team, Lived four hundred days of front-line gore. Audie earned...

Leon Byner Has Left the Building
Leon Byner has left the building After 23 years of people bargaining He was the people’s voice to be heard And on most things he was undeterred I remember him spinning discs in the 60s and 70s As a radio disc jockey so cool you see Before shifting to talkback radio at 5AA Where he would take on the issues...

Kings of Leon
The road in front of us falls away, The radio static becomes a wall we nod our heads to, And the car splutters along like cheap fireworks Again your eyes slide off the dash onto my hands Which are busy being nervous. In this silence it is impossible not to feel like an uninvited guest, All flesh, no voice. I...

This Masqurade - a Leon Russell Tribute
Ivory pieces transcending space and time where the words just got in the way lost inside the smoke of just another day A song for you deep from a sensitive mind reaching for a reaction for actions done wrong forgiveness sung for a special friend of mine When the dew drops no longer shine for me and a hard rain begins to...

Second Time's the Charm
I’ll keep this short, that all may know These words I write, I write to show A singer* once said of the trade that he plied A poem is a person, stands naked and spied A compliment given reflects back upon The giver if not those words were steeped on So when you tell me just so, to be nice “The...

Think I'm showing off Full of bull Never there to push when pulled Dulled Looking to cull the itches Looking to subtle the trenches No that cant be Not from what these eyes see Not nobody Correction..... Not anyone can come between Nor hurricane typhoon Rollercoaster monsoon Even with destiny' great angst Or fates recluse Or judgement day' recruit Uff spine abiphida too The gallows n their noose A 4 star...

Wouldn'T (With Leon In Mind)
You're the only one who turns my cheeks a rosy pink. The only one that makes my future so clear. Living the moment. Was what I was all about. But with you. "Living the moment" is just another phrase. Never thought this could ever happen. Afraid with excitement. Never thought I'd fall in love so quickly. Seems like I'm rushing. But with you. It's the perfect...
